3. The “walking on eggshells” phase
One of the most draining symptoms of a failing relationship is when your partner turns into a prickly pear suddenly. Even the slightest thing you do – from breathing, driving, to asking a question – becomes a reason for a quarrel.

It can be one of the psychological mechanisms known as projection. If a person is guilty or unhappy with the relationship, yet lacks the guts to part ways, they may provoke arguments in order to place the blame on you. It becomes simpler to detach if they can justify that you are the irritating person to be around.
